Firefox: Mozilla successfully rethinks its browser
Authored by: ranker on Feb 25, '04 11:46:35AM

I've had Firefox/Firebird as my main browser for a while now. It never crashes, it has functions galore via extensions and it is updated nightly. If you find a bug, you report it and it gets fixed (usually anyway).

My main problem with Safari is opening links in new tabs. Either I'm doing it wrong or you need both keyboard and mouse to do this (command + click). This is hopeless and annoying. With Firefox you right click (or click and hold) and choose from contextual menu - no struggling to find the command key. Or if you are surfing via the keyboard you can simply type in the first few characters of the link and it is immediately highlighted - then hit return or command + return for new tab. The ability to surf from the mouse or the keyboard without having to reach for the other makes Firefox the winner for me.
